Beschreibung
A story of love, adventure, power and the eternal quest to take control of one's destinyThe Living Infinite is inspired by the true story of the Spanish princess Eulalia, an outspoken rebrand at the Bourbon court during the troubled final years of her family's reign. After her cloistered childhood at the Spanish court, her youth spent in exile, and a loveless marriage, Eulalia willingly accepts a role as royal emissary far from a crumbling Europe, in the New World. In the company of Tomas Aragon, the son of her one- time wet nurse, and a small-town bookseller with a thirst for adventure, she travels by ship first to a Cuba bubbling with revolutionary fervour then on to the 1893 Chicago World Fair. Publicly, she is there as a representative of the Bourbon dynasty, privately, she is in America to find a publisher for her autobiography, a secret manuscript that if published might well turn the old world order on its head. Eulalia's personal rebellion resonates long after the final page of this captivating saga.
